My Vacation = Your Vacation?

Still Raining. I suppose that means there is little to do. Oh so wrong Obi-Wan.



Today was a very busy day for the old man on the Cape. It is always most dangerous to start the day with a trip to a Federal anything let alone a museum dedicated to the Cape Cod National Seashore. What ever one needs to know from whatever went on since the Pilgrims skipped town in Plymouth to whaling or sailing ships, quahog clams, codfish and modern tourism can be found in some diorama with a full written description in Arial Regular silkscreened on a display board. Some of the fake stuff even looks real while much of the real stuff looks faked.


I have become expert in flora and fauna of the salt marsh and even know when and where I can drive the Land Cruiser on the beach that I forgot to pack. It is the one thing I really miss almost as much as my lovely DakotaDawg. It pained me to see pictures of other families enjoying the company of their dogs on the sunny beaches with plastic bags in hand. I have none of the above.
